Limescale build up, before HydroFlow, formed typically in 3 months even with the water filtration. After the installation of HydroFlow there is almost no scaling, only a soft gel paste which is very easy to remove. |

Field Conclusion
Limescale build up reduction: The increased performance was noticeable within 20 days.
Maintenance: The property conducts quarterly cleaning and inspection regardless. The ice machines quarterly
maintenance and cleaning is taking 1/6 of the time or less, which is a substantial savings in labor. It was also
noticed that the ice produced is clearer.
Hydroflow will improve the performance of the equipment through out the quarter, and reduce maintenance.
Estimated Return on Investment due to maintenance cost savings: 12 to 18 months.
